Exploring notions of tradition, globalisation and identity, the exhibition was inspired by the growing number of expatriate Chinese artists and by the interest they have generated in contemporary Chinese art and culture within the Australian art world. Similarly China's relatively new associations with other nations has created a rich and lively investigation by contemporary Chinese artists of the diverse experiences, influences and art styles of other traditions.
